What We Do
Yours Truly supports carers in Dudley to identifying suitable formal and informal interests, together with helping them in accessing these interests. The benefits and differences experienced by carers would be, increased social skills, improvement in health and well-being, increased skill set and feeling of self-worth, a reduction in isolation, increased sense of purpose and for some greater financial stability.
How We Can Support
We can support YOU to identify personal and vocational goals for self-improvement, outside of Your caring role.
This would include but is not limited to:
Increased social skills and interactions by joining and taking part in social activities, like book clubs, craft clubs, gardening clubs and digital skills groups.
Improvement in health and well-being by joining and taking part in sport, health, or fitness activities like gyms, bowling groups, walking groups.
Increased skill set and self-worth by enrolling on and completing college courses, either to develop basic skills or vocational qualifications.
Increased sense of purpose, and for some financial stability by identifying valuable work experience, volunteering opportunities and paid work where circumstances permit.
